From Coach Randolph:
Due to the chance of weather tonight, we are switching the JV and Varsity games for today. Both games will remain at Copeland.
- Varsity game – 4:00
- JV game – 7:00 (or after the Varsity game)
The stalemate is broken!! North Mesquite works a pair of walks and Liam Thornton delivers this two-out two-run double to right-center to give them a 2-0 lead as we go to the bottom of the sixth inning @NM_HSBaseball
Final: North Mesquite 2, Mesquite 0
Another nice play at short ends it as Christian Hinkle goes the distance for the complete game shutout @NM_HSBaseball
Huge defensive play for North Mesquite as with the bases loaded and one out, they turn the 6-4-3 double play and head to the 7th with a 2-0 lead @NM_HSBaseball
Mesquite gets a runner to third but Christian Hinkle comes through with the K and after one, North Mesquite and Mesquite are scoreless @NM_HSBaseball
North Mesquite’s Christian Hinkle with another 1-2-3 inning and he has retired nine in a row and we head to the sixth with still no score @NM_HSBaseball
An errant pickoff allows Mesquite to get a runner to third for the second time but Christian Hinkle gets the big K on a 3-2 pitch and it is 0-0 after three @NM_HSBaseball
North Mesquite’s Christian Hinkle faces the minimum in the bottom of the second as a leadoff walk is erased by a 6-4-3 double play and after two, Stallions and Skeeters are scoreless @NM_HSBaseball@skeeterpastime
End 4: Mesquite 0, North Mesquite 0
Pitchers duel thus far. Mesquite’s Adam Pineda has allowed one hit and thrown 48 pitches. North Mesquite’s Christian Hinkle has allowed one hit and thrown 52 pitches @skeeterpastime@NM_HSBaseball
So so sad for this year. Can’t believe it. Love you guys and so was looking forward to our run. Looking forward to getting back after it with you guys soon.
